The official Spokesman for the government, Bassem Al-Awadi, confirmed that the government is continuing to fight corruption and all forms of infringement of the law, in continuous and close cooperation with the judicial and legislative authorities. Al-Awadi said in a statement, "The government, based on its commitment and legal responsibilities, is following up on misleading campaigns that aim to obstruct its work in various fields, including what was reported of inaccurate information that contains innuendo, and some of which included direct accusations against the government regarding issues that are currently under judicial consideration, as the executive authority awaits what will be issued in this regard, with the government's continued emphasis on adhering to the law and respecting judicial decisions. Al-Awadi stressed, "The government stresses the need to continue fighting corruption and all forms of infringement of the law, in continuous and close cooperation with the judicial and legislative author ities, and it also relies in this path on the vigilance and awareness of the citizen so that he does not become a victim of those who distort the facts and deliberately mislead public opinion. He added, "There are those who are working to drag the government and distract it from its national approach through desperate attempts that do not stand up to the real and actual legal procedures that the government is working to implement and support. The past two years of the government's life have proven the strength of the will in this direction, and the continuous determination to implement reforms and not to be lenient in public rights, no matter the pressures and consequences."
